I twisted this classic Provencal layer vegetable using Middle Eastern herbs "za'atar" and add a little tanginess by adding sumac. I actually like it, it is a perfect companion for any grilled kebabs and even taste good with just regular Middle Eastern flat bread. Very simple recipe with delicious result, and look pretty too.

- Slice all of the vegetables, then arrange them tightly and neatly on a baking dish, start with tomato, eggplant, tomato, zucchini, and again with tomato. Repeat the layer until finish with all vegetables. Sprinkle with za'atar and sumac, then drizzle with olive oil. Pour the water or chicken stock into the dish, season with salt and pepper.
